Ashly’s Quotes

“A writer should read until he is filled to the brim and like a pitcher which is over-filled over flows. And then he should write.”

“murmuring their laughter, sibling laughter—he can hear it—not the laughter of school friends or neighbors or cousins. Something secret in that laughter, private, edged with meanness and devotion, a fear of the knowledge each has of the other.”
― Emily Ruskovich, Idaho

“One of the worst parts about someone dying is thinking back to all those times you didn’t ask the right questions, all those times you stupidly assumed you’d have all the time in the world. And this too: how all that time feels like not much time at all. What’s left feels like something manufactured. The overexposed ghosts of memories.”
― Julie Buxbaum, Tell Me Three Things
